! A good move. Now black is forced to excange pieces. A move like 20.fxg4? would have been a mistake 20. ... Nxg4 21.Qf3 Bxd3 22. Qxd3 Qxd3 23. cxd3 Nf2 and black regains his rook with 2 extra pawns. |

A good move if 24. Rxf3 dxe4 25. dxe4 Nxe4 and black is still in a good position. Or 24. exd5 Nxd5 25. Rxf3 Nc3 and black takes back his rook. |

24. e5

White plays the best move. |

24... Ng4

Blacks knight comes to protect the pawn with tempo. |

|
25. d4 Ne3
|
Now we see why the 23. Rh3 was a mistake. |

26. Rc1
|
? White had to play Rd-h1. |
|
| |
|
|
26... Rxc1+ 27. Kxc1 f2
|
! Now white is completely lost. |
|
| |
|
|
28. Rf3 f1=Q+ 29. Rxf1 Nxf1
|
And white resigns. Feel free to comment because my comments and analyzes can be wrong. |
